Alyssa,
R. John Brockmann continues to work at the University of Delaware. He
recently published his long-awaited _From Millwrights to Shipwrights to the
Twenty-First Century: Explorations in a History of Technical Communication
in the United States_ (Cresskill, NJ: Hampton Press, 1998, ISBN
1-57273-077-3). If you want to follow either the work of John Brockmann or
the history of our discipline, this book is a must-read. Look for a fully
detailed, enthusiastic review by Charles Crawley coming in the August issue
of _Technical Communication_.
